Ark Of Testimony - from between The Two Cherubims and He
Spake to Him.
That

Hebrews
Be
Strong and Of Good Courage - dread not nor be dismayed.
On
The Twentieth Day Of The Second Month - in The Second Year
That
The Cloud Was Taken Up - from off
The Tabernacle Of The Testimony.
The Children Of Hebrews Took Their Journeys - out of The
Wilderness and

According
To Their Armies - When They Set Forward.
Moses
Said To Hobab - the son of Raguel the Midianite Moses' Father
in Law
We
Are Journeying To The Place Of - that God
Said I will give it you
Come
Thou With Us - and We Will Do Thee Good
For
God Hath Spoken Good - concerning Hebrews.
He Said To Him I Will Not Go - I will depart to Mine own Land
and to My Kindred.
He Said Leave Us Not I Pray Thee - forasmuch as thou knowest
how
We
Are To Encamp In The Wilderness - thou mayest be to us instead
of eyes.
It Shall Be If Thou Go With Us Yea - It Shall Be That What Goodness
God
Shall Do To Us The Same
- Will We Do To Thee.
They Departed From The Mount Of
God - three days' journey and
The
Ark Of The Covenant Of God - went
before them in the three days' journey
To Search Out A Resting Place - for them.
The Cloud Of God Was Upon Them
- by day when they went out of The Camp.
When The Ark Set Forward - that Moses
said Rise Up God and
Let
Thine Enemies Be Scattered - and let them that hate Thee
flee before Thee.
When It Rested He Said - Return O God
to the Many thousands of Hebrews.
All
The Congregation Lifted Up Their Voices - and cried
The
Peoples Wept - That Night.
All The Children Of Hebrews Murmured Against Moses - and against
Aaron.
The
Whole Congregation Said To Them - Would God
that we
Had
Died In The Land Of Egypt - or would God
we had died in this Wilderness
!
Wherefore
Hath God Brought Us - to this
Land to fall by the sword
That
Our Wives and Our Children - should be a prey
Were
It Not Better For Us - to return into Egypt ?
They
Said One To Another - Let us make a Captain and let us return
into Egypt.
Then
Moses and Aaron - fell on their faces before
All The Assembly Of The Congregation - Of The Children Of The
Hebrews.
Joshua
The Son Of Nun - and Caleb the son of Jephunneh that were of
them
That
Searched The Land - rent their clothes and they spake
To
All The Company - of The Children Of Hebrews Saying
The
Land That We
Passed Through To Search - it is an exceeding
good land.
If God Delight In Us - then He
will bring us into this Land and
Give
It Us A Land That Floweth - with
milk and honey.
Only Rebel Not Ye Against God -
Neither Fear Ye the People of The Land
For
They Are Bread For Us - their defence is departed from them
and
God
Is With Us
- fear them not.
All The Congregation - bade stone them with stones.
The
Glory Of God
Appeared - in The Tabernacle Of The Congregation
Before
All - The Children Of Hebrews.
God Said To Moses - How long will
this People provoke Me ?
How
Long Will It Be - ere
They
Believe Me For All The Signs -
that I have shewed among them ?
I Will Smite Them With The Pestilence - and disinherit them
and
Will
Make Of Thee A Greater Nation - and mightier than they.
Moses Said To God - then the Egyptians
shall hear it for
Thou
Broughtest Up This People - in thy might from among them and
They
Will Tell It To The Inhabitants Of This
Land - for they have heard
That
Thou God
Art Among This People -
that thou
God
Art Seen Face To Face -
and that Thy Cloud standeth over
them and
That
Thou Goest Before Them By Day Time - in a Pillar of a
Cloud and
In
A Pillar Of Light - by night.
Now
If Thou Shalt Kill All This People - as one Man
Then
The Nations That Have Heard The Fame Of Thee - Will Speak Saying
Because
God Was Not Able - to bring this
People into The Land
That
He Sware To Them Therefore - he hath slain them in The
Wilderness.
Now
I Beseech Thee - Let The
Power Of God Be Great.
According
As Thou - Hast Spoken Saying
God Is Long Suffering - and of
great mercy
Forgiving
Iniquity - and transgression and
By
No Means Clearing The Guilty - visiting the iniquity
Of
The Fathers - upon
The Children to the Third and Fourth Generation.
Pardon I Beseech Thee The Iniquity - of this People
According
To The Greatness Of Thy Mercy -
and as
Thou
Hast Forgiven This People - from Egypt even until now.
God Said I Have Pardoned - according
to Thy Word.
As Truly As I Live - all The Earth
Shall Be filled with The Glory Of God.
Because
All Those Men - that have seen My Glory
and
My
Miracles -
That I Did in Egypt and
In
The Wilderness
- and Have
Tempted Me Now These Ten Times and
Have Not Hearkened - To My Voice
Surely They Shall Not See The
Land - that I sware to their Fathers
Neither
Shall Any Of Them That Provoked Me
- see it My servant Caleb
Because
He Had Another Spirit With Him - and hath followed Me
fully Him will
I
Bring Into The Land - whereinto
he went and His Seed shall possess it.
Amalekites
and The Canaanites - dwelt in The Valley.
Tomorrow
Turn You - get you into The Wilderness
by The Way of the Red Sea.
God Spake To Moses - and to Aaron
Saying
How Long Shall I Bear With This Evil Congregation - that murmur
Against Me ?
I Have Heard The Murmurings Of - The Children Of Hebrews
That
They Murmur - Against Me.
Say To Them - As Truly As I Live Saith
God
As
Ye Have Spoken In Mine Ears - So Will I Do to You
Your Carcases Shall Fall In This Wilderness
- and all that were numbered of you
According
To Your Whole Number - from twenty years old and upward
That
Have Murmured - Against Me.
Doubtless Ye Shall Not - come into The
Land
Concerning
That I Sware - to make You dwell
therein
Save
Caleb The Son Of Jephunneh - and Joshua the son of Nun.
Your Little Ones That Ye Said - should be a prey them will I
bring in and
They
Shall Know The Land - that Ye have
despised.
As
For You - Your Carcases They Shall Fall in this
Wilderness.
Your
Children Shall Wander - in The Wilderness
forty years and
Bear
Your Whoredoms - until your carcases be wasted in The
Wilderness.
After The Number Of The Days - in that ye searched The
Land even forty days
Each
Day For A Year Shall Ye - bear your iniquities
Even
Forty Years - and Ye Shall Know My Breach Of
Promise.
I God Have Said - I will surely
do it to all this evil Congregation
That
Are Gathered Together - Against Me
In
This Wilderness They Shall Be Consumed
- and there they shall die.
The
Men That Moses Sent To Search The Land
- who returned and
Made
All The Congregation To Murmur Against Him
- by bringing up a slander
Upon
The Land - even those Men that
did bring up
The
Evil Report Upon The Land - died
by the plague before God.
Joshua
Son Of Nun - and Caleb the son of Jephunneh
That
Were Of The Men - that went to search The
Land lived still.
Moses Told These Sayings To All - The Children Of Hebrews and
The
People - mourned greatly. They Rose Up Early - in the morning
and
Gat
Them Up - into The Top Of The Mountain
Saying
Lo We Be Here - and will go up to The
Place
That
God Hath Promised - for we have
sinned.
Moses Said Wherefore Now - do Ye transgress The
Commandment Of God ?
It
Shall Not - prosper. Go Not Up For God
- is not among you
That
Ye Be Not Smitten - before your enemies.
For the Amalekites - and the Canaanites are there before You
and
Ye
Shall Fall By The Sword - because Ye are turned away from God
Therefore
God Will Not Be - With You.
They
Presumed To Go Up - to The Hill Top
nevertheless
The
Ark Of The Covenant Of God - and
Moses departed not out of The Camp.
Then The Amalekites Came Down - and the Canaanites that dwelt
in that Hill and
Smote
Them and Discomfited Them - even to Hormah.
At That Time God Separated - the
tribe of Levi
To
Bear The Ark Of The Covenant - Of God
To
Stand Before God To Minister To
Him - to bless in His
Name to this day.
Wherefore Levi Hath No Part Nor Inheritance - with His
Brethren
God
Is His Inheritance - according as thy
God promised him.
God
Hearkened To Me At That Time Also - and God
would not destroy thee.
God Said To Me Arise - take Thy
Journey before the People
That
They May Go In Possess
The Land - that I sware
To
Their Fathers - to give to them.
Hebrews What Doth God Require Of Thee - but
To
Fear Thy God - To Walk In All His Ways
and
To
Love Him and
To Serve God
- with all Thy Heart and with all Thy Soul
To
Keep The Commandments Of God -
and His Statutes
That
I Command Thee This Day - for Thy Good !
Behold The Heaven - and The
Heaven Of Heavens Is God's
Thy
God The
Earth Also - with all that therein is.
Only God Had A Delight In Thy Fathers
- to love them and
He
Chose Their Seed After Them - even
you above all People as it is this day.
Circumcise Therefore The Foreskin - of your heart and be no
more stiffnecked.
For God Is God - of gods a
Great God a Mighty and a Terrible
That
Regardeth Not Persons - nor taketh reward
He
Doth Execute The Judgment Of The Fatherless - and widow and
Loveth
The Stranger - in giving Him food and raiment.
Love
Ye Therefore - the stranger for Ye were strangers in the Land
of Egypt.
Thou Shalt Fear God - him shalt
thou serve and
To
Him Shalt Thou Cleave - and swear by His
Name.
He Is Thy Praise and He
Is Thy God - that hath done for thee
These
Great and Terrible
Things - That Thine Eyes have seen.
Thy
Fathers Went Down Into Egypt - with threescore and ten persons.
70
Now
God Hath Made Thee
- as The Stars Of Heaven for multitude.
Thy
God He Will Go Over
Before Thee - and he will destroy these Nations
From
Before Thee - and thou shalt possess them
Joshua
He Shall Go Over Before Thee - as God
Hath Said.
God
Shall Do To Them
- as he did to Sihon and to Og Kings of the Amorites and
To
The Land - of them whom he destroyed.
God
Shall Give Them Up
- before Your face that Ye may do to them
According
To All The Commandments
- that I have Commanded You.
Be
Strong and Of A Good Courage - fear not nor be afraid of them
for
God
He It Is That Doth Go With Thee He
- Will Not Fail Thee Nor Forsake Thee.
Moses Called To Joshua - and said to him in the sight of all
Hebrews
Be
Strong and Of A Good Courage - for thou must go with this People
to
The
Land That God
Hath Sworn - to their Fathers to give them and
Thou
Shalt Cause Them - to inherit it.
God
He It Is That Doth Go Before
Thee He Will Be With Thee He Will Not Fail Thee
Neither
Forsake Thee - Fear Not Neither Be Dismayed.
That
Is Not Of The Seed Of Aaron - come near to Offer incense before
God
That
He Be Not As - Korah as his company
As
God Said To Him - by the hand of
Moses.
On The Morrow All The Congregation - of The Children Of Hebrews.
Murmured
Against Moses - and against Aaron saying
Ye
Have Killed - The People Of God.

Moses and against Aaron
That
They Looked Toward - The Tabarnacle of The Congregation and

The
Cloud Covered

Moses and Aaron - came before The Tabarnacle Of The Congregation.
God
Spake To Moses - Saying

That
I May Consume Them As In A Moment - they fell upon their faces.
Moses Said To Aaron Take A Censer - put Light therein from off
The Altar
Put
On Incense Go Quickly To - The Congregation make an Atonement

put on incense
Made
An Atonement - for the People.

Stood Between
The Dead - and The Living and the plague was stayed.

Beside
